JOSH ROSENBERGER: Downtown Indiana thanks White, Reed

On behalf of the Downtown Indiana Inc. board of directors and staff, we would like to publicly express our sincerest and deepest appreciation to state Sen. Don White and state Rep. Dave Reed for all of their hard work in helping Downtown Indiana receive a $3.25 million Redevelopment Assistance Capital Program grant.

This money will be used for the ongoing Streetscape project to renovate the 600-800 blocks of Philadelphia Street (Segment C).

Both Sen. White and Rep. Reed have been instrumental in the success of the Streetscape project and our hometown as a whole. Their endless efforts and strong support ensure the success and continued vibrancy of downtown.

We’re not only lucky, but extremely proud and honored to have such compassionate, dedicated individuals represent and care for Indiana. Thank you so very much!
